Yes I have it. I'm sorry you have it, I hope yours gets better. I prayed for you.

My OCD is in the form of intrusive thoughts/rumination that can torture me all day sometimes. Yes it's torture. I'm trying to work on exposure therapy, letting the thoughts just "sit" and not react to them, letting the anxiety/fear just flow through my body and not react. It's particularly bad when I wake up in the middle of the night and can't sleep, just lying in bed in the dark, and these scary thoughts enter my mind. (I have insomnia problems too)

Exposure therapy supposedly works depending on how severe it is

Medication?

You're supposed to get relief?

 

[ItsOverMan]

Medication?

I'm not OP but I was on OCD meds but I hate having to do a psychiatrist appointment every 3 months to get refills, so I stopped taking it a year ago. I'm trying inositol supplement now, not sure if it works. Studies say it works for some people.

 

[Misogynist Vegeta]

I hate it so much, It makes it hard for me to cope with hand I've been dealt in life because I cannot stop thinking about stuff, I always have to make changes by I never satisficed with the final result.

What dose of magnesium do you take daily? I might try that.

 

[Bloodhood]

400mg on the bottle I got i take two everyday

Magnesium is an essential mineral involved in over 300 enzymatic reactions in the body. Here are the key health benefits:
Energy & Metabolism
Magnesium helps convert food into energy (ATP production) and reduces fatigue and weakness.
Muscle & Nerve Function
It regulates muscle contractions, prevents cramps and spasms, and supports proper nerve signal transmission. Athletes often take it to aid recovery.
Bone Health
About 60% of the body's magnesium is stored in bones. It works alongside calcium and vitamin D to maintain bone density and reduce osteoporosis risk.
Heart Health
Magnesium helps regulate heart rhythm, supports healthy blood pressure, and may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Sleep & Stress
It activates the parasympathetic nervous system (rest/relax mode), supports melatonin production, and helps regulate cortisol — making it popular as a sleep and anxiety aid.
Blood Sugar Control
Magnesium plays a role in insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism. Low levels are linked to higher type 2 diabetes risk.
Migraine Prevention
Studies suggest magnesium supplementation can reduce the frequency and severity of migraines.
Mental Health
Low magnesium is associated with depression and anxiety. Supplementation may have a modest positive effect on mood.

Yes, but it honestly got 50-70% better once I started university for engineering compared to LDARing and NEETing at home 24/7

 

[iblamemyself_0]

especially when you fight it and try to compel yourself from doing certain actions to soothe the tension and it just worsens

Thanks bro, but looks is more important than intelligence imo. My academic ability didn't prevent me from being severely bullied and ignored by foids throughout school.

so you take 800mg/day total magnesium? i wasn't sure if you mean 400mg per day or 800mg per day. Also do you take magnesium citrate or magnesium glycinate?

magnesium citrate
Magnesium 400mg from amino acid citelrate and malate
Malic acid 222mg

Claude AI
That makes total sense then! You have magnesium citrate/malate — those are both forms known to have a laxative effect, especially at 400mg which is a pretty solid dose.
The good news is citrate and malate are actually well-absorbed forms, so your body is getting the benefit — it's just a bit too much at once for your digestive system.

I recently when down from 2 pills two to one a day It calms down my nervous system and gives me deep sleep i was magnesium deficient who knew but yes i was taking 2 pills a day when I started
